Angry Birds Video!

I got an email this morning from a talented young lady who has busily been making all of my Angry Birds patterns. Let's just say that there was no way I could go without sharing this with all of you!

Ashley (DaddysGirl91 on Etsy) is a 20-year-old daughter of a Baptist Pastor who loves to crochet, bake and decorate cakes. She also keeps a blog where you can learn more about her and see some of her work (make sure to check out her cake gallery -- she's amazing!)

Ashley sells her finished Angry Birds in her Etsy shop too -- so if you don't have time to work up one of my patterns for yourself, stop by and see her!

Either way, I hope you'll visit her shop or her blog and send her a little love. This young lady certainly made my day!

What is amigurumi?

Amigurumi(編み包み) is the Japanese art of knitting or crocheting small stuffed animals and anthropomorphic creatures. The word is derived from a combination of the Japanese words ami, meaning crocheted or knitted, and nuigurumi, meaning stuffed doll. Amigurumi are typically cute animals (such as bears, rabbits, cats, dogs, etc.), but can include inanimate objects endowed with anthropomorphic features. Amigurumi can be either knitted or crocheted. In recent years crocheted amigurumi are more popular and more commonly seen.
